Several questions on JavaFX Script

Hi!
It's been a few days since I learning JavaFX language and I have several questions :
- I tried to use Reflection through FXContext but there are some methods which are not documented. For example I used FXContext.mirrorOf() to create a FXValue from a String but I do not understand what "mirrorOf" means in JavaFX context
- Is it possible to do "on replace" trigger through JavaFx Reflection ?
- Is it possible to unbind or rebind ? If not, what are workarounds to handle this ?
- I do not understand why they are so few event handlers in JavaFX UI classes (AFAIK there is not resize, unload or init event). Is it intentional ? Do you suggest using binding/trigger instead ?
PS : Happy new Year to everyone :)

Maybe you could first look <a href="http://www.sap.com/solutions/netweaver/webappserver/index.asp">here</a> then come back and ask a few questions or maybe even look <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/was.sdn?node=linkDnode6">here</a> as well then ask?
Most of your questions are answered very directly in the documentation.
As for ITS on Unix or Linux, we have and ITS server running on Linux now. As well as a WebAS server 620 (ABA and Basis installed) with J2EE engine on Linux. We previously had a 610 running on a window server. Our ITS runs separatly from the WAS but the WAS like any SAP R/3 System can then link to it or it to them. As for the future of ITS I read somewhere from SAP that it was delimited so I would not expect much more from it. Perhaps searching the Documentation about the ITS (Netweaver website) you might find more details about it'S future.
A WAS is a <b>W</b>eb <b>A</b>pplication <b>S</b>erver, and from SAP that means ABAP and J2EE or with Netweaver you can install it with ABAP, with J2EE or with Both.
As for more details please look [url=https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/was.sdn?page=getstart_webAS_Java.htm]here[/url]

Specify the GUI declaratively in ActionScript like in JavaFX Script instead of MXML

After reading a bit about JavaFX Script (which is actually remarkebly close to ActionScript 3) as a developer I thought the way one can specify the GUI declaratively in JavaFX Script via JSON-like notation for the components is pretty cool. It would be nice to have something like that in Flex/ActionScript too. The advantages I see over MXML are:
1) a more compact notation than XML which is nice from a developers view point who actually writes this kind of code. Of course the idea would be that designers still design the GUI with graphical tools that generate this code but if you have to dive in and edit the code it's nice not to have to deal with verbose XML and I think even designers can easily understand JSON-like code; don't just assume that designers love XML because HTML was based on SGML! I'm not so sure if today many designers really still know raw HTML that well (like in 1997, the early days...). Server side developers probably know it better because they have to adapt it to jsp or asp or whatever framework.
2) The fact that it's all ActionScript gives a seamless integration between just composing the components to form the GUI and adding scripts to add additionial behavior instead of mixing XML with actionscript code => no more need for those nasty CDATA blocks! It would also be easy for development tools like Flexbuilder to give a seamsless experience with code completion and zooming in on the code because it's all Actionscript! There's also no need for a separate expression language to tie the MXML to the underlying Actionscript. It would it also make easier to create custom components (not just simple composition components which is really easy in MXML) because you don't have to implement separate XML tags.
here's a short JavaFX Script example:
Frame {
content: GroupPanel {
var myRow = Row { alignment: BASELINE }
var label_col = Column { alignment: TRAILING }
var field_col = Column { alignment: LEADING }
rows: [myRow]
columns: [label_col, field_col]
content:
[SimpleLabel {
row: myRow
column: label_col
text: "Type your text here:"
TextField {
row: myRow
column: field_col
columns: 50
visible: true
Note that this shouldn't be confused with programmatically specifying the GUI in Actionscript (which is possible today as an alternative to MXML). What I propose is at a (slightly) higher level: you don't give a detailed sequence of methods/functions to call to construct the GUI (i.e. HOW to do it) but just specify WHAT you want.
Hopefully some Adobe Flex will see this and think about it. Although I think MXML is not too bad and I can live with it if I have to ;)

I like that idea Sean. A standard and well-supported way to separate MXML and code would be good. I'd love to have builder support a MVC style triad for MXML files, with the
model.as being simply an all-public-all-bindable class full of VOs and view-specific information, any view-manipulation and view<->app communications in the
controller.as, and nothing but bindings and layour in the MXML. There's (almost) nothing stopping you doing this by hand at the moment, but it's a pain, and developers wouldn't stick to it for very long, when they need to create and maintain 3 separate files for that simple "error dialog" without a hand from Builder.
Then again, I'd rather Adobe spent the time that would take on opening and better-documenting builder's APIs, so we can write our own plugins easily, but that's my greedy side- A standard builder-supported MVC pattern for custom MXML components would be aweseome for people that aren't me :)

As for JavaFX, I don't care for it.

Jason you bring up a good point on a concept that I think Adobe should
poach from a different framework, Silverlight. In Silverlight the
code-behind pattern is automatic and very nice to work with. Every
interface can be composed of both a layout file and a script file, and
they get composited into the SAME class at compile time. So you can
have both a FileDialog.mxml and FileDialog.as file that know about each
other automatically, without the need to subclass one from the other.

Personally, I like the separation between the MXML and ActionScript.
We're working on a large project, and so we have all the ActionScript
separate from the MXML files. For example we'll have something like
filedialoglayout.mxml, and then
filedialog.as that is a subclass of
filedialoglayout. All event handlers and the like are setup in the
filedialog.as file - the mxml file doesn't know about any function names.
Advantages:
MXML files become layout only - and are more easily shared and worked on
with non-technical people
ActionScript is all in *.as files: no CDATA blocks and no FlexBuilder
quirks where editing ActionScript inside a CDATA block doesn't work
quite like in a real AS file.
For simple experiments, and for learning, it's obviously nice to have
everything in one mxml file, but in a big project like ours, the
separation helps keep things clearer and more maintainable.
Why use the mxml at all? The MXML files are nice to edit with the
visual editor in Flex Builder, and it's much easier to apply styles and
embed assets in MXML than it is in pure ActionScript.
I think two ways to talk about the same thing (XML and ActionScript) is
already almost one too many - adding a third (JSON) would really be too
much.
Just my thoughts.

This reminds me of a certain workflow pattern that has emerged for us
which might help provide some insight on this topic. I'm working on a
project with a couple other developers which connects to a webservice
for supplying clientside data. This data is available in both json
notation and xml notation. The thing is, while the developers have
overwhelmingly agreed that we should be consuming the json version
since it can be parsed faster and provide more meaningful context for
objects (ie strings vs ints vs arrays etc...), all these same
developers rely exclusively on the xml notation when asking questions
about the data or passing structures around to discuss.
I see the same thing when looking at JavaFX and MXML. JavaFX might
allow for more accurate structures and might be able to be compiled
faster, but MXML is better for being self documenting even if it
requires more verbosity.

I'd be curious what other people think. I see MXML as a distinct
advantage over doing the pseudo-script stuff. I really don't like
the JavaFX system actually.

0-It take 300 meg of my memory in small 10 page sample project / is it normal ? (memory shown in task manager windows XP)
0-Where i can find documents about Creator way of using RowSet technology ?
I have several question which i could not find answers in documents or online tutorials my questions are :
1-for example i have a table in a data source ? how i can access my table ?
2-i bind fields of jsftest table to texteditors i can save changes to current field
by using : jsftestDataProvider.commitChanges();
Now how i can insert a new ROW ?
i tried jsftestDataProvider.appendRow(); in another button action but it insert null items
into database / how i can add a row to my table
3-how i can delete a field based on a field value ? or even primary key value ?
should i write the sql Script in Session bean method and use that in my jsf pages ? or maybe RowSet technology has some
solution for this ?
4-How i can use HTML tags (not jsf tags)inside a jsf file ?
is it possible to use them or not ? for example to generate a table with some dynamic column number?
5-is it possible to use JSP tag libraries like DisplayTag in jsf ?
6-does Creator 2 EA 2 support Myface ?
7-can i add html tags to result page in java source file ? for example in Action on a button add some HTML tag to result page ?
8-how i can pass url parameter between pages ? if i do not like to use request bean.
Its my question for Now ;)
Thank you for answering

Haha.... thats normal.
I've 768mb of ram, and i can still feel the lag, especially when the server and pointbase is one,
worst still.... i having JSC and Netbean running together -_-"
i think 1.5GB of ram wld be gd
Regarding the tutorial part, there are api in the "Dynamic Help" box,
What i did was extracting the java doc into my desktop for easy reference. JSC's screen is too small.
U can find these references under "C:\Sun\Creator2\rave2.0\docs". Just unzip them

Can you help me with several questions?

I have several questions
1. What boxes do I need to click on when I click on a link and want it to open in windows instead of tabs?
2. Why is it that I can not add norton 360 and yahoo on my add on bar?
3. Is it possible to just use firefox to open up my aol without signing on to windows and signing on to aol and then using firefox as my search engine and if so how do I do this?
4. Why is it that there are so many times that when trying to go to to a link that it keeps coming up try again?
5. Also what kind of antivirus and spyware do foxfire have or will my norton 360 cover this on foxfire?
If you can help me with all this then I would appreciate it

You could set it up so that the user never has to press "commit" button by modifying the "update" and "delete" event within "DataHandlerComponent.jsp" which will commit on all updates and deletes. This will also commit the "inserts" as the insert process will take you the the update page anyway.

Several questions on Fireworks from absolute beginner

Hello!
At the moment I'm in the very beginning of web-designing process and I've been using Fireworks trial for several days only. Before that I've created only one website in Joomla! and that's all. I've got several questions and I would be glad if masters of Fireworks will post full answers on them.
I've read the official manual, but didn't check any additional materials, because I feel better when learning myself with help in form of answers to concrete questions.
Here is how I see process of making simple website in Fireworks: draw website and then make it to work. I did first part and I've prepared my website. It of course looks ugly, but I want to start from it, as I'm learning. Here it is:
Okay, what is the next thing I should do? Right, I should slice it. And here goes the question: how should I slice my menu? I want it to be simple menu, so when you move mouse over "About me" it lightens in some other color and some content should appear in right part of this structure. How would I implement it using Fireworks? Then in what format should I export my webpage? HTML and CSS? How do I write styles in CSS through Fireworks? And final question is how can I make my website be in center of page (I've tried to add <center></center> inside "index.htm" file, but no luck)? I would also like to know what do I need to do with all images so you can't select them with mouse and move all around in your browser? How do I stick them:
Thanks and sorry for too many questions at one time,
Aleks.

Looking at your mockup, that navbar could probably be created
completely using CSS and HTML, rather than slice up the "button areas"
but if you want to go that route, I'd recommend creating button
symbols. The slicing is done for you and you can create up to four
states for the button.
If you want to export the graphics only, choose File > Export.
Browse to your site folder
Set the Export option to Images only
Make sure you are exporting slices
Deselect the option to export areas without slices
Click Save (Windows) or Export (Mac)
Use DW to create your page, insert your images and add your rollover
behaviors.

Questions on Calculation Scripts

I have two questions on Calculation Scripts:
1. When executing a Calculation script via the Administration Services console (right-click execute) besides the Messages lower window pane, is there a detailed log/trace of the script activity?
2. We had a calc script #1 and we wanted to modifying it. We cut the entire script out into Windows notepad, made the adjustments then paste back into the script. When we go to parse it came back with validation errors. However if we simply edit the existing script within the console (do not cut and paste outside of AAS) it correctly validates. Bug? Limitation?
Thanks
JTS

Just to add to that, each application has its own log.
For example if you the Sample essbase application will have a log named sample.log and will be located in <essbase home dir>\app\sample or in V11 <hyperion home>logs\essbase\app\sample

Problem with Java-Packages in JavaFX-Scripts

Hello!
What I'm trying to do is using a class I've built in my project in a JavaFX-Script, my problem is that the compiler keeps telling me my package wouldn't exist.
My filestructure is basically the following:
src
|-com.foo.java
|-- MyClass.java
|-com.foo.javafx
|-- MyFXScript.fx
I've tried importing the package or just writing the fully qualified classname when trying to create an instance, the messages didn't differ. I'm not at home right now so I don't remember the exact compiler-message, but it was something like "Package does not exist: com.foo.java".
Any ideas? :-)
Kind regards,
Joshua
Edited by: gnrx on Jan 12, 2009 5:55 AM

It works on my system.
MyClass.java
package com.foo.java;
public class MyClass {
    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "My Class";
MyFXScript.fx
package com.foo.javafx;

var myClass = new MyClass();

Several question regarding kde4

Hi!
Yesterday I have upgraded kde to 4.1 version. I am quite happy with it, but I have several questions:
1. Is there any way to organize icons on desktop? In KDE 3 we had "Snap to grid" and was ok. Now they are freely mixed on desktop.
2. I am missing some KDE 3 styles (like domino). And now Qt3 apps uses basic Qt styles (which are awful). Trying to install it from pacman results in error, because styles require kde3-base.
P.S. I rather don't like default theme for KDE4. I miss some nice and polished window decorations and styles and of course grayish gray and more gray color schemes .

I heard about but didn't test Folder view (for managing icons on desktop). Also you can right click on applications in the menu and tell them to be put on the desktop. Or at least it worked before, with the first kde-workspace package merged. Unfortunately I cannot test now, since I'm on a win desktop at work.

Question concerning sap script

Hi all experts! I have a question concerning sap script
First some background information:
Ive created a sap script that is called from a function module and from an executable program, when I run the executable program the sap script work fine, but when I run the function module, all the variables in the sap script dont have value
In the function module the variables are defined in the top include
I dont know why these variables dont take his value from the function module
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Message was edited by: Gerardo hernandez

I think that sapscript expects its variables to be in the program which calls the fm <b>by default</b>. When you test via SE37 the framework itself is the calling program and it's unlikely that it will have a variable named kunnr-name1.
To over-ride this default, inside your fm pass the 'options' parameter(type itcpo) to 'open_form' and set the 'tdprogram' value to sy-repid in the function module.
I have tested this in my own environemnt and initially got the same error as you. When I set the tdprogram variable it started working!

Can Eclipse Rich Client Platform embedded javaFX script?

My application is based on Eclipse Rich Platform Application (RCP), and rcp includes the SWT_AWT bridge,
which allows RCPs to integrate Swing components as:
Composite swtAwtComponent = new Composite(parent, SWT.EMBEDDED);
java.awt.Frame frame = SWT_AWT.new_Frame( swtAwtComponent );
javax.swing.JPanel panel = new javax.swing.JPanel( );
frame.add(panel)
First, I create a JavaFX project, where a subclass of the Scene creates, let's look at the code:
* Rect.fx
public class Rect extends Scene {
init {
content = [
Rectangle { width: 200 height: 200 fill: Color.BLUE },
Text { x: 20 y: 20 content: "Greetings Earthling!" fill: Color.WHITE }
public function run(args : String[]) {
     Rect {}
Then, another Plug-in Project has been created a rich client application, and rcp includes the SWT_AWT bridge,
which allows RCPs to integrate Swing components as:
Composite swtAwtComponent = new Composite(parent, SWT.EMBEDDED);
java.awt.Frame frame = SWT_AWT.new_Frame( swtAwtComponent );
javax.swing.JPanel panel = new javax.swing.JPanel( );
frame.add(panel)
There are two lines to create the JavaFX scene to be loaded into a JFrame:
String sceneClass = "test.Rect";
JComponent myScene = SceneToJComponent.loadScene(sceneClass);
The SceneToJComponent class comes from the JFXtras project.
Its loadScene() method loads a JavaFX Scene class and returns a JComponent object,
which can be used as a normal Swing JComponent.
String sceneClass = "test.Rect"; // the main class of the javafx script
JComponent theScene = SceneToJComponent.loadScene(sceneClass);
In Rcp application, when try the load the class, this code compiling,
running and trowing exceptionon console I have the following error:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jfxtras/scene/SceneToJComponent
also if this class is present in the classpath of the java project.
Then I've tried to place this code in simple java application (not eclipse rcp) and all went ok.
Has anyone tried to include this code in eclipse rich client platform (rcp)?
Thanks in advance, Best regards
Shanti

I have download Java FX2.0 to emebed a scene in a Swing component inside a view of a rcp application, setting the classpath with jfxrt.jar.

JavaFX Script plugin for the Eclipse IDE

Experience the JavaFX Script in the comfort of your favorite IDE. For the download and documentation visit the project page: http://kenai.com/projects/eplugin

I have been unable to get the JavaFX Script plugin working with either Eclipse 3.3 or 3.4. I have reported the problem on the kenai web site and tried many of the suggestions, but I (and others) still cannot get it to work.
It would really be nice to have an alternate to NetBeans for FX development.
Cheers, Eric

Question about calculation script 'Fix'

Hi Guys,
I have a question about calculation script 'Fix'. Below is the sample for my question:
Dimension 'Period' has members '2009','2010','2011'. We want to Fix the data which 'Period' is not '2009'.
From Database Administrator's Guide we could use @NOTEQUAL, but version 11.1.1.3.0 seems not support @NOTEQUAL.
Actually, the dimension is dynamic so we cannot use the way fixing other memebers. What should I do for this requirement?

Edited by: 842270 on Apr 24, 2011 7:29 PMYou can use @Remove command to avoid 2009.
@REMOVE
Removes values or members in one list from another list.
Syntax
+@REMOVE (list1, list2)+
Parameter Description
list1
+ A list of member specifications, from which the members specified in list2 are removed.+
list2
A list of member specifications to be removed from list1.

Help: apply different para styles to several consecutive paragraphs via script

Hi all,
I need to apply different para styles to several consecutive paragraphs via script, something like this (found somewhere on the net):
var myDoc = app.documents[0];
var mySel = app.selection[0];
var myPStyle1 = "A";
var myPStyle2 = "B";
//need to add 6 more styles here:
//var myPStyle3 = "C";
//var myPStyle4 = "D";
//var myPStyle5 = "E";
//var myPStyle6 = "F";
//var myPStyle7 = "G";
//var myPStyle8 = "H";
//the last style not needed in script?
// apply 1st style to 1st paragraph
mySel.appliedParagraphStyle = myDoc.paragraphStyles.item (myPStyle1);
// apply styles to paragraphs after selected
//2nd style
mySel.paragraphs[-1].insertionPoints[-1].appliedParagraphStyle = myDoc.paragraphStyles.item (myPStyle2);
//next style
mySel.paragraphs[-1].insertionPoints[-1].paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[-1].appliedParagrap hStyle = myDoc.paragraphStyles.item (myPStyle2).nextStyle;
I've tried badly, but can't find the way to extend the sequence
Sorry, no skills in scripting yet...
all styles have 'Next Style' option activated, but I can't use 'Apply style, then Next style' or Object styles, because I need four different sequences of those para styles:
A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H
A-B-D-E-G-H
A-C-D-F-G-H
A-D-G-H
and I really don't want to create special clones of the same style for each sequence (Keep It Simple, they say ).
I believe it can be done via four slightly adjusted scripts...
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Sorry about being late to the party, I usually pick up stuff like this right away.
How about this one?
1. No separate scripts needed, it uses a tiny dialog where you can choose what style set to use. If I'm correct, you can press a number key on Windows to immediately select one of the items.
2. It works down from the paragraph your cursor is in. It has nothing to do with text frames, though -- consecutive paragraphs inside a story always ignore any text frames.
3. Extensible: you can easily change the names of the styles in the top array, and the number of style groups in the list.
var styleLists = [
          [ "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H" ],
          [ "A", "B", "D", "E", "G", "H" ],
          [ "A", "C", "D", "F", "G", "H" ],
          [ "A", "D", "G", "H" ]
var radiobutts = [];
styleDialog = app.dialogs.add ({name:"Set Multiple Styles",canCancel:true});
with (styleDialog)
          with (dialogColumns.add())
                    with (radiobuttonGroups.add())
                              for (i=0; i<styleLists.length; i++)
                                        // Build radio button string
                                        str = "&"+String (i+1)+". ";
                                        for (j=0; j<styleLists[i].length; j++)
                                                  if (j) str += "-";
                                                  str += styleLists[i][j];
                                        radiobutts.push (radiobuttonControls.add({staticLabel:str, checkedState:false}) );
radiobutts[0].checkedState = true;
if (styleDialog.show())
          for (i=0; i<radiobutts.length; i++)
                    if (radiobutts[i].checkedState == true)
                              break;
          if (i < radiobutts.length)
                    par = app.selection[0].paragraphs[0];
                    for (j=0; j<styleLists[i].length; j++)
                              par.appliedParagraphStyle = styleLists[i][j];
                              par = par.parentStory.paragraphs.nextItem(par);

Several questions that I do not see in the "FAQ" about CC.

I have several questions that I do not see in the "FAQ". Here are three of them.
1) After a cancellation of membership, for whatever reason, will I still be able to use the After Effects I bought before this CC thing?
2) What happened to the software I have purchased in the past? I can no longer link to the page that contains my serial numbers for the products that I have purchased.
3) And can I no longer download my software if my copies are lost?
4) Is CC the only way to get future software versions? It appears that using the software through a subscription keeps one from upgrading to new versions without having to keep paying once you purchased or one will not be able to use the software.

1) After a cancellation of membership, for whatever reason, will I still be able to use the After Effects I bought before this CC thing?
1, After cancelling CC you can use the perpetual products purchased by you earlier. If you have registered them you can access them via Adobe.com (Retail purchase)
2) What happened to the software I have purchased in the past? I can no longer link to the page that contains my serial numbers for the products that I have purchased.
As mentioned all your previous purchases are available to you, to get the serial number of past if they are retail purchase & registered then :
Enter your Adobe ID and password, and then click Sign In. Go to manage account(you get this when the cursor is hovered over your sign in name, choose all products.
The My Adobe page is displayed. All your registered products and their serial numbers are listed in theMy products section
3) And can I no longer download my software if my copies are lost?
Yes you can download it if you have purchased it as an download link as the download option is also available with the serial number, you can find some download here also Download and Installation Help
4) Is CC the only way to get future software versions? It appears that using the software through a subscription keeps one from upgrading to new versions without having to keep paying once you purchased or one will not be able to use the software.
The best part of CC is that you do not need to make another purchase, the CC keeps on upgrading on its own at no extra cost, you can get the upgrades till the time you have active CC.

Please change JavaFX Script Language Operators to well known standards.

I am having a lot of trouble getting used to the JavaFX operators, and even more trouble understanding WHY they are so different than those in Java. Look at the [operators for ActionScript|http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/operators.html] and the operators for JavaScript ( [1|http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_operators.asp] , [2|http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_comparisons.asp]).
Both are much closer to Java than JavaFX is. The RIA devs we are targeting have been using those languages for years. None of them are going to type "mod" instead of "%" or "or" instead of "||". Instead, they'll try to use the standard operators, then go searching the docs like I did to find out what it is in JavaFX Script.
Why, pray tell me, is Sun trying to reinvent the wheel? Is it a case of "Not Invented Here"? We all know how useful that attitude is. Is this something that came up in a clinic? This is a serious flaw in JavaFX Script, and one that should be corrected now, before it is too late.
